GAS CONNECTION

The gas connection is a 3/8" NPT 90
The gas line can be rigid pipe or to make
installation easier, use a listed fl exible connector
and/or copper tubing if allowed by local codes.
Since some municipalities have additional local
codes it is always best to consult with your local
Propane
authorities and the CAN/CGA B149 installation
#50
codes.
For USA installations follow local codes and/or
the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1.
When using copper or fl ex connectors use only
approved fi ttings. Always provide a union so that
gas lines can be easily disconnected for burner
and/or valve servicing. Flare nuts for copper lines
and fl ex connectors are usually considered to
meet this requirement.
Important: Always check for gas leaks with a
soap and water solution or gas leak detector.
Do not use open fl ame for leak testing.
Note: Prior to any pressure testing of the gas
supply piping system that exceeds
test pressures of 1/2 psig, this
appliance must be disconnected from
the piping system. If test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig are used
then this appliance must be isolated
from the piping system by closing
its individual manual shut-off valve
during the testing.

HIGH ELEVATION

This unit (at 38,000 Btu/h) is approved in Canada
for altitude 2000 ft. to 4500 ft. (CAN/CGA-2.17-
M91) with the orifi ce kit Part # 621-975. For
Natural Gas installations above 4500 ft. follow
current CAN/CGA-B149.1.
In U.S.A., for installations above 2000 ft. refer
Propane
to current ANSI Z223.1 Sc8-8.1.2a appendix F,
#52
for resizing orifi ce.
